"Weapons
For the safety of all guests, weapons of any kind, regardless of permit, are not permitted in the Greater Tacoma Convention & Trade Center. The ONLY exception to this is uniformed law enforcement personnel in the performance of their official duties."
So, this will be interesting. A firearms expo, but no weapons allowed.

Is the Convention center a private entity or is it owned by the city? If owned by the city, doesn't this section of RCW 9.41.300 apply?
(2) Cities, towns, counties, and other municipalities may enact laws and ordinances:
(a) Restricting the discharge of firearms in any portion of their respective jurisdictions where there is a reasonable likelihood that humans, domestic animals, or property will be jeopardized. Such laws and ordinances shall not abridge the right of the individual guaranteed by Article I, section 24 of the state Constitution to bear arms in defense of self or others; and
(b) Restricting the possession of firearms in any stadium or convention center, operated by a city, town, county, or other municipality, except that such restrictions shall not apply to:
(i) Any pistol in the possession of a person licensed under RCW 9.41.070 or exempt from the licensing requirement by RCW 9.41.060; or
(ii) Any showing, demonstration, or lecture involving the exhibition of firearms.

I've never been to any gun show, auction or trade show involving firearms that allowed carrying a loaded firearm. Even a outdoor show in Texas had a checkpoint and sent a few of us back to the vehicle to leave weapons.

So during the VIP event, for those of you that are going, there is a free for all dodge ball event (for those that are not prone to tweak, break, or pull something with a hint of physical activity) The last man standing apparently gets a Gemtech Suppressor that they donated.
TONS of prizes for the VIP event. Since the max ticket count is 250, your odds are pretty good at taking home something cool
